Like you...Oh, the horrors and delights of barrique. Like you, I have been very sceptical. However, over the last couple of years I have come round to barrique and white wine - fantastic German Chardonnay and Pinot have played a role here, but also a few very nice examples from California (not usually my wine region of call). Now I just dislike badly barrique-d wines - a dreadful example was a German Sauvignon Blanc where all traces of fruit had been killed. Horror!<br /><br />TorstenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
